Yes! Love that you guys did a test like this! Help people be realistic about what to expect when you put agresivamente looking tires. But most importantly you help people be HONEST about their experience! A lot of guys straight lie to themselves about their tires, because they don’t want to admit they regret their purchase 😂
I really wanted the Yoko to do better, I think the weight of the LT tires made a difference on this Tacoma. If this test would have been on a half ton pickup or larger there would have been less impact from the LT tires. Thank you guys for putting in the time, effort and energy in conducting this.
Thanks for putting this together, Tire Rack. I recently purchased Falcon AT4W 265/70R18 P rated for a 2010 Tunda WITHOUT a 5.7L. I was comparing the weight of tires and these were 46lbs a tire. I didn't want to add the extra weight of an LT tire even though I wanted the new KO3. I hate the loss of acceleration, when running bigger heavier tires especially on an older truck with lower torque and power. I love the day to day performance of a motor not held back by big rubber. I'm surprised no one makes a tire with a super good looking sidewall and great backroad performance. Call it the Backroad not Backdoor.
I almost bought Cooper Road+ trail months ago, but held off because there wasn’t much reviews about them. Wow, what a great result, for the price this tire will be really hard to beat.
Thank you for your feedback! We will definitely share your comment with our tire testing team. We will be conducting winter testing at the end of the month, and will share the results once they are available. Make sure you keep an eye out for them!
A few months ago I put a set of Hankook Dynapro AT2 Extreme on my 21 Tacoma Trd Off-road. After watching this & seeing they are rated to 70k, my next tires are the Nitto Terra Grapler G3’s.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Unfortunately, we do not carry the Nokian Outpost nAT at this time, so it will not be included in our tire testing. We apologize for any frustration this may cause.
You should have tested the Falken AT4W in LT so we could better compare it to the other off-road a/t tires like the BFG. Would have also liked to see the Toyo AT3 (LT) included.
There needs to be a lot more discussion on Load Range. The LR change ride dynamics dramatically on the same ride - often more so than entirely different tires. Thanks for addressing it here.
Dynapro AT2 Extreme are well rounded. Had em for 15k miles no problems no punctures when off roading Colo & Wyo. Snow traction is great and behaves great on highway. It IS quite. And the last set lasted me 78k miles. Price also the best and waited for a rebate in 265.70 R17 800 with install . Dont pass on em. Or leave em for me
This is a perfect video! I have been looking at the coopers r+t for my truck but nervous with the light reviews. I wish I could wait for the winter review but the 3 peak stamp and this video gives me enough confidence to pull the trigger! Keep up with these videos!! I’m my family’s go-to tire adviser and use y’all’s rankings and reviews to select for their individual needs. These comparison videos really help!!
Fantastic test and video. Just read your article on this yesterday. I’ve been shopping the Cooper Road+Trail. While there aren’t a lot of reviews yet, this test gives me great confidence before making my purchase and eases my mind
We wish we could test every tire, but unfortunately there has to be a limit just to keep a test manageable and consistent. However, we have tire tested the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T in a different tire test. Take a look at our full test report for more information: bit.ly/3PxowYF.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We have previously tested the Firestone Destination XT. Take a look at our full test report for more information: bit.ly/4j5Rr3o.
Thank you for your comment! While testing every tire individually may not be feasible, we have conducted a separate test specifically on the Toyo Open Country A/T III. You can find more information about this test here: bit.ly/47PSP4.
For winter conditions these tyres are unsafe. To achieve the necessary grip, to drive safe it is mandatory to use the winter tyres. Btw, the 3PMS symbol means the tyres are over a minimum standard (from the last century) that half of the nowadays tyres already exceed.
Hello, G Donuts. We have tire tested the General Grabber APT and General Grabber A/TX. Take a look at our full test report for more information: bit.ly/3WYqQdv and bit.ly/3GMurm7.
So Iam really interested to know why you chose the Yokohama A/T4 for this test ? The Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 is the tire that is made for 70% on road use . It consistently places higher in Dry braking , Wet braking , One of the most quietus tires on road , if not thee most quiet tire . Ranks great for lane and direction changes . Always places in the top 2 out of 10 tires across the board . You guys rank it high , so why not use it in this test ?
great hosting again guys, such good information and details. I would have never expected nitto to be up there in road and handling feel. Any opinion on the Pirelli scorpion AT?
I've put 3k miles on my pirellis so far in my tacoma. Quietest AT I've experienced, by far. MPG went down by 1, was running wrangler duratracs prior, but they are junk.
Hello, Battle Garage! Thank you for your kind words and support. We have previously tested the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus. Feel free to check out our full test report for more information: bit.ly/3aGZpxW.
They previously tested the Baja Boss A/T, against two other A/T tires. They did better in the snow and worse across the board on road and track but I got mine to take off-road and I love them.

I sold my f150 and downgraded to Maverick. Been riding on LT rated KO2s for the past 10 years. They are nice but would be overkill for a Maverick. Got some great sales from Walmart on a set of Cooper All Terrain (some said it's AT3 some said it's Road+Trail's predecessor, anyway it seems to be Walmart only). They surprised me on how good they are on road. And it can do light off-road better than my stock Conti tires. I only use it to haul my ATV, so I don't really need the truck to handle severe off-road
This video left me more confused than informed. Wish they would have included tire weight as a metric, and talked about effects on fuel economy (even if only projected or estimated effects). Seems like the hand of Toyota was slapped on these guys to NOT mention anything around fuel economy
We are sorry to hear that you feel this way. We understand your concerns regarding longevity and fuel efficiency for our products. However, we are constantly striving to improve our testing methods and are exploring ways to incorporate such testing in the future. Your feedback is valuable to us in this process.
Hello, Willie. We strive to test tires thoroughly, but there are limitations to ensure consistency. We have previously tested the BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A. You can find detailed information in our full test report here: bit.ly/3Wkprzc.
Great question! Yes, the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 is considered an On-Road All-Terrain tire. There are limits to the number of tires tested to ensure manageable and consistent testing. However, we have tested the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 in the past. You can find more information in our full test report here: bit.ly/3H7flas.
The TerrainContact A/T performs at a high level across the board. Its noise comfort on the road pairs perfectly with its athletic and responsive steering. With capable wet traction that seems to be a slight step above the rest and winter behavior that champions its versatility the Continental proves it’s a well-rounded package. Take a look at our full test report for more information: bit.ly/40BzTnB.
Most modern ATs that are snow rated are better than true snow tires in deeper snow and thick slush. Different story on snow that's been packed and icy, or just an inch or two of fresh snow. How wet that snow is is a factor too
Hello, Momo_8K. Thank you for your inquiry. We have not yet tested these tires in winter conditions. However, we are scheduled to conduct winter testing at the end of the month. Rest assured, we will share the results with you once they become available. Please stay tuned for updates!
I have 6 ply BFG KO2’s on my LX470 and I’m surprised at how quiet they are at highway speeds. Feels great. I run 36 psi front and 38 rear. Plus, Discount Tire has a new shop 30 min away from me and were able to balance them perfectly whereas my old shop with a old Hunter machine said they couldn’t balance them out 😂
What about the "Sailun terramax rt". I just bought these this year. And so far I like them. But I do wish that they would have a more aggressive side biters. There's barely anything there. Maybe have the choice of the more aggressive side wall or not ? Besides that it would give you more protection if off road.
Hello, Tess. We do not carry the Sailun brand, so unfortunately, it will not be included in our tire testing. We apologize for the frustration this may cause. However, we encourage you to try our Tire Decision Guide, which can help you find the right tires for your needs in two minutes or less. bit.ly/2nNOVTQ Please let us know if you have any additional questions!

Great review looking forward to forward to the winter review
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the video!
Thanks for the broad test of tires, looking forward to the winter test results.
Thank you for your feedback!
I have had 8 sets of the Michelin ltx, but I am going to consider the Coopers now. Great work guys 👍🏼
We are so happy to hear you found the video informative!
Great test, thanks for doing this!
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the video! Thank you for your feedback.
Very helpful information here, thanks! One note: please fix the link for "View the full 2024 test report."
Thank you!
Look at that orange peel on that Toyota. They really nailed it on the color and texture, looks exactly like a real orange.
Now please test all these on snow & ice for us! ❄️⛄️

Great VID! looking forward to the winter traction video. And then hopefully a small off road course video 🎉
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the video!
I have the Nitto Ridge Grapplers 10 ply full size Chevy love these tires❤

@@chrisb9478 so do you like the performance of the Dynapro AT2 Extreme . Off road, winter and highway
I hoped to see Nokian Outpost nAT tested. For Tundra thats 97% pavement the rest steep gravel and mud roads. It sees lots of wet, snow, and ice.
Few reviews. Just bought on the few comments I could find.

Toyo at3?
Thank you for your comment! While testing every tire individually may not be feasible, we have conducted a separate test specifically on the Toyo Open Country A/T III. You can find more information about this test here: bit.ly/47PSP4.
@tirerack I understand. But the Toyo is a very popular tire compared to some of the others
Can you do a video on snow testing for the ones that are three peak rated
Agreed. My biggest concern is snow peformance also.
For winter conditions these tyres are unsafe.
To achieve the necessary grip, to drive safe it is mandatory to use the winter tyres.
Btw, the 3PMS symbol means the tyres are over a minimum standard (from the last century) that half of the nowadays tyres already exceed.
Hello, G. Great idea! We are constantly striving to enhance our testing processes and will definitely share your feedback with our team.
Where are the General Grabber tire offerings, the APT & ATX?
Hello, G Donuts. We have tire tested the General Grabber APT and General Grabber A/TX. Take a look at our full test report for more information: bit.ly/3WYqQdv and bit.ly/3GMurm7.
Where is every other all terrain made by every manufacturer? They can’t test em all in one video.
Great question! You can view all the all-terrain tires we sell on our website: bit.ly/4aa6rt7

@ thank you!
I wonder where the MT Baja Boss AT in SL and LT loads stack up on ride quality and cabin noise.
Having the MT Baja Boss AT standard load installed on my 23 Taco Off-Road right now. Didn’t want the bounce and weight of the LT E load on my Taco.
@ how’s the ride quality and road noise
Geolander G015 AT is something I'm considering for my Tacoma. Would it fit into this group?

I wish the Nokian Outpost AT was included in the test but unfortunately no...
The Continental AT bested all the other AT tires in prior tests. Is it still the king, expecially in Wet performance?
It's great at everything except winter traction otherwise I would jump on them.
The TerrainContact A/T performs at a high level across the board. Its noise comfort on the road pairs perfectly with its athletic and responsive steering.

Man, those new Tacoma‘s are sharp looking trucks👀
I love mine, got it in silver and it definitely looks mean
Definitely a beast and we love it!

Dang. I guess I’ll take those new discoverer strongholds out of my discount tire cart. SMH
Goodyear Destination A/T 2 is also an excellent option on the Toyota Tacoma.
Very happy with it.
